💨 Abstract

A parish priest, Father Pat Brennan, left the Holy Family Catholic Church in Coventry after nine years. In a farewell letter, he expressed frustration with "unfriendly" parishioners and "disdainful" behavior that contributed to his departure. He noted a decline in attendance due to "gossiping" within the community. In his poem, Brennan hinted that such attitudes could repel potential attendees.
